Hatchet comment
16 November 2006
i think the book hatchet is great. it is my favorite book right now. have read hatchet a few times and now i understand finally what it means. i think hatchet was very well written and edited. i think Gary Paulson the author of the book has lots of knowledge. it also teaches us a lesson on how to live int he wilderness, just like what Brain did. Brian was visiting his dad in the Canadian oilfields when the pilot of the two seated plane that he is traveling in gets a minor heart attack and dies. Brian is forced to land the plane int he forest because soon the plane is going to be running out of fuel. when Brian crashes all he has left with him is a box of cookies,a bottle of water,two oranges and the hatchet his mother had given him. he learns how to live in the wilderness and faces many dangers like, animal attacks, hunger and even a tornado. he learns how to make fire without matches and catch fish without a fishing rot or a net. he is finally rescued and taken back to normal life, but Brian is thinking of going back to the wilderness as he is used to it.
